Hi Chris,
The modifications I’ve made are around parameters related to the slow start
threshold logic, ENOBUF behavior on interface write, and each Reno congestion
control logic segment has also received some changes. The majority of the
changes are implementing sysctl tunables to experiment with varying degrees of
network behavior I’ve been witnessing on my infrastructure.
I’ve been evaluating potential patterns to allow optimal maintenance and
addition of future CC algorithms.
Cheers,
Brian
